Folklore, Practice and Theory of Robust Combiners
Amir Herzberg
Abstract
Cryptographic schemes are often designed as a combination of multiple
component cryptographic modules. Such a combiner design is {\em robust}
for a (security) specification if it meets the specification,
provided that a sufficient subset of the components meet
their specifications. A folklore combiner for encryption is {\em cascade}, i.e.
